Message: <blockquote data-quote="Willtell" data-source="post: 95884" data-attributes="member: 194">I know it sounds like a dumb question but once the the mage has scrolls of detect secret doors whats the point in improving the search skill?.The difficulty to detect traps scales with level which means the rogue is only going to find 10-20% of the traps he encounters. Would'nt the rogue be better of taking lightning reflexes, iron will, greater fortitude and other feats and skills that help him survive traps instead of increasing his chance to find them?.Or using a wand of summon monster 1 to set off traps - it would cost only 750gp per dungeon crawl!. Or charming a prisoner into telling you were the traps are, then having the shakled prisoner talk 10ft ahead of you.</blockquote>
